PC-Bioxx

my boss requires help - he has insatlled the PC-BIOXX ( Installed ok i think) just trying to flash and it is saying it is not connected - tried two computers - does he flash by parallel port or serial port.

i never used one of these before, someone please help!!

Parallel port built-in - upgrade BIOS anytime without soldering

PCBioXX Flasher v1.2 if you have problems with Flasher 1.3, it will probably work with this version of the tool

tell him to try that m8, get it at

THIS site

thanks freaky

NP

hope it wot u wanted m8, and that the new flasher works

he has his fingers crossed, when he tries it tonight

well he has tried it, and it does not work - saying not connected

hhhhhhmmmmmmmm wonder what that is then well it was worth a shot, and maybe it could be faulty m8

what other way can it be tested ?

sorry m8 i dont know much about it, cant you tell him to contact whoever he got it off and ask them how else to test it, or maybe replace it, have u asked this in the homebrew section, worth a shot.

rishy just found this for ya m8, someone else had the exact same problem, here is what someone said to him

set your PC lpt port in the PC bios to "standard / spp" connect the cable between pc and xbox bios chip...

power on pc, power on xbox, when both have completed boot up - start bios flash program which came with mod. you should now see "bios chip found in the bottom window".

select open and point too your name.bin bios file, load it then prog it.

you should do a chip erase first, just to be sure its blank!!!

hope this helps

Ive just got my box back, and have done all the above. The programmer is verifing the write, but the machine is not starting up with the bios. I know this because Im using the EvoX2.5 which changes the colours etc. (I am assuming this works on PAL machines.)

Any ideas why it isnt working? Or does it have to go back to the shop?

sorry m8, i copied and pasted that from another website, you need someone like maltloaf or some other techno wizz to answer this fr you, or try the homebrew section m8

Thanks anyway!

This may be a stupid question, but does the EvoX2.5 actually work with the PC-BioXX?

to be honest m8 i dont know, but if its just a normal bios image like all the others then i dont see why it wouldnt, at the comp fair they have evo-x chips that they have programmed themselves, so id say yes, but im not sure m8.

one of the techno wizzards need to answer this one for ya m8 as this is something i have never done.

sorry

Its the only thing I can think of. Ive looked at the work on the board, and it all looks good. Sigh.
